Waiting for new car?
Is Penasse is so closely connected with the customer programs as you assume?

Sure it seems like they are waiting. But what's there to lose by running in Croatia outside of points. Only argument against that I see is that Croatia was not confirmed for future rallies until after the rally. Anyway the Solberg point was just a small detail.
I don't know how much Penasse was involved and I also wrote that he likely wasn't. Just trying to come with possible reasons why he "suddenly" looses his job.
Might be something completely different. But you don't get rid of someone you are completely satisfied with.
Or it could be about the Veiby Corona mess. That's more like something he should be involved with. (checking that Veiby follows FIA rules). It cost them 3 entered R5 cars ( Veiby in Portugal and Sardinia and Scandola in Sardinia), Solbergs Sardinia start and also future "income" from 2021 Veiby WRC starts.
Any thoughts on who will come in to fill that role in Hyundai Motorsport?
Skarderud, I was thinking of one that lives close to our borders, and has same passport as us. He could fit the requirements.
